engagementwith the instrument. An expert in the field was tasked with taking the assessment to establish abaseline for the amount of time reasonably required to complete the EERI thoughtfully. Thechange in score was calculated for each individual, and histograms, Q-Q Plots and theShapiro-Wilks test were used to evaluate the normality of this data [9]. A paired pre/post t-testwas employed to evaluate the differences in the EERI scores from the first to the fourth year.This test was chosen for its effectiveness in comparing two related samples.ResultsInitially, the P score, which measures postconventional thinking based on universal good, had amean pre-score of 60.62 (SD = 17.59). Over four years, it decreased to a mean post-score of57.24 (SD = 19.37
showedan increase in student engagement. However, it was inconclusive whether the homeworkcompletion grade was affected by the pedagogy. The results also showed that the homework hada weak positive correlation with exam performance.The present paper further aims to assess the efficacy of the pedagogy by examining studentengagement and student performance across multiple cohorts of the course. Learningmanagement system tools, like chat and polling, were previously shown to be effectivequalitative methods for overcoming the passive learning behavior exhibited by EFL students.Thus, a comparison by cohort and in aggregate were performed for the following: studentparticipation at each synchronous Q&A session using the chat feature, student polling
equations are converted to a set of algebraic equations using a weighted integral statement (e.g., weak-form Galerkin and least-squares formulation). For example, a weak-form Galerkin formulation of the governing equations, Eq. 1–2, can be stated as: find the solution {u, p} ∈ S h such that for all {w, q} ∈ V h the following equation is satisfied: Z ∂u w· ρ + ρu · ∇u − ρg − (∇ · w)p dΩ Ω ∂t Z − ∇q · u dΩ + (suitable stability terms) ZΩ = {w · (−pI + τ ) · n

For theSpring 2023 semester, however, a separate question was included to ensure all participantsreported their topic in a clear manner (see Appendix B.2). Aside from undeclared, the codesfrom the analysis of deterministic inventory modeling in Poem 2 are preliminaries, ABCanalysis, EOQ modeling, and miscellaneous whereas the codes from the analysis of stochasticinventory modeling in Poem 3 are preliminaries, newsvendor, (q,r) policy, and miscellaneous.For participants who chose a topic that did not fall into one of the predetermined categories, theirresponse was tagged to miscellaneous.

For example, we set upa meeting with a senior-level C/P faculty-member with first-hand knowledge of the promotionprocess for C/P faculty at the university level. On the whole, our conversation was valuable inaffirming that we were at least asking the right questions. However, when we expressed our lackof clarity around the process for promotion, the first response was to send us back to ourdepartments for examples and written expectations. Our departments did not have examples andthe written expectations were vague so we continued the conversation as follows. Q: “Can you tell us something about what a successful promotion package

These faculty mentors consist of one representative from each engineering disciplinewho eventually would become the SSP students’ academic advisors and have regular check-inswith their students. The lunches offered a casual, non-threatening environment to help buildconnections between students and their mentors. Faculty mentors utilized the lunches to provideshort Q&A sessions with the group describing their discipline along with academic andprofessional opportunities.Throughout the year, social events were planned to provide students with an opportunity to relaxand connect with each other and the grant team.
